A banker left a 1% tip in defiance of 'the 99%' at a Newport Beach restaurant the other week, according to his dining companion and underling who snapped a photo of the receipt and posted it to his blog, Future Ex Banker. (Update: the blog is now offline.)

In posting the photo, the employee gave some background on his boss and the receipt:

Mention the â€œ99%â€ in my bossâ€™ presence and feel his wrath. So proudly does he wear his 1% badge of honor that he tips exactly 1% every time he feels the server doesnâ€™t sufficiently bow down to his Holiness. Oh, and he always makes sure to include a â€œtipâ€ of his own.
​

The "tip" of his own in this case was to tell the server to "get a real job." Pleasant.

arrogance and professional assholism are considered signs of fighters and good competitors in our industry, mostly because it is run by inhuman, arrogant, assholes like mike bloomberg and jamie dimon. normal, decent people are squeezed out. usually the good people leave because the antics others get bonuses for, disgusts them. (we often wonder how come i'm still there). this is why i don't socialize with my work friends: they embarrass me.
